Chapter 615(1/2)
His Royal Highness Dodo's decision made Flides very satisfied. He said: "In February of this year's Fire Season, we can harvest the green wheat in eastern and central Sasan. We will no longer plant green wheat in the second half of this year. We
The urban freedmen in the eastern and central parts of the empire have been moved in batches to the rear areas of the western part of the empire. After harvesting the green wheat in the first half of the year, all the villagers, townspeople and tenants in the eastern part of the empire will be evacuated to the central part of the empire to receive armaments and undergo reorganization.
I estimate that 150,000 militiamen can be armed, enough to fill the gaps in the eastern border defense line."
"There will be 50,000 Sasan garrison troops in the southern section of the eastern border defense line." The old patriarch looked around at the four His Highnesses present, and finally his eyes fell on the leader of the Iron Wall Knights. He nodded and said: "The Sasan Empire's militia
Fighting in the name of Emperor Frederick, it is under the command of Siegfried, the eldest son of Emperor Frederick. I will urge the eldest son of the emperor to hand over the command of the garrison in the southern section of the Eastern Frontier Defense Line to the two Highnesses of the Iron Wall Knights."
After receiving the command of the southern defense line, the two royal highnesses of Dodo were also very satisfied. Dunkru said solemnly: "King Dodo, His Majesty Friedrich will lead Dodo's main reinforcements to station in the southern section of the defense line. We will definitely stick to it.
In the war zone, no orc army will be released."
"I am convinced of this." Flides nodded with a smile, turned to Roland, and asked: "Your Highness Auguste, which part of the eastern defense line is Gombis's main reinforcement going to take over?"
Roland tilted his head, frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "I haven't thought about it yet... I need more detailed information."
For Roland's answer, Friedes was not surprised, nor did he express dissatisfaction. He nodded and said: "This orc war can be divided into two war zones. One is the frontier defense line and the eastern border defense line, collectively called the Sasan Eastern War Zone.
; The other is the Megalithic Fortress War Zone against the Orc King’s army. The Sasanian Empire, the Kingdom of Dodor, the Kingdom of Gombis, the Knights of Radiance and the Templar Army are responsible for the eastern Sasanian war zone; the Cardinal Templars, the Inquisition, and Nahuel
Kingdom, Kingdom of Suss and Kingdom of Borre are responsible for the Stone Fortress War Zone."
"The Stone Fortress War Zone has sent the most elite scouts deep into the east side of the Sidon Centaur territory to detect the movements of the Orc King. There is currently no more accurate information."
Friedas paused, pointed at the map and said: "The eastern Sasan war zone is also divided into two major areas. Exploring the territory of the Sidon Centaur to the east of the defensive line, referred to as the Sidon Wilderness; Exploring the territorial defense line and the eastern territory
The area in the middle of the defense line is referred to as the Eastern Frontier."
"According to the information we currently have, 400,000 Sidonian centaurs are divided into two groups. The Northern Centaur army is about 180,000, possibly led by 16 gold-level centaurs. They are stationed in the Sidon Wilderness east of Giant Wood City and Guangming City.
It is 26 kilometers away from the eastern border defense line, and it simultaneously contains the main forces of Giant Wood City and Guangming City. The southern army has about 220,000 troops, and its camp is located in the empty area between Guangming City and Crystal City. It is led by at least 20 gold-level centaurs.
The southern army has cut off the connection between Crystal City and Guangming City, has broken into the frontier defense line, and can advance westward to the eastern border defense line of the Sasanian Empire at any time."
"Let's talk about the situation of the Sidonian Centaur slave army."
Flides drew a circle on the map and said: "This is the rear home base of the Sidonian Centaur, the Sidonian Wilderness...Intelligence sent back by frontline scouts showed that there are at least 400,000 goblin slaves transporting food for the Sidonian Centaur warriors.
and supplies, which mainly provide supplies for the northern army."
"The defenses of the Sidon Wilderness are empty, and the supply system of the goblin slaves is chaotic and inefficient. Only an elite team can be sent to the Stone Fortress War Zone to completely destroy the supply line of the Sidon Wilderness."
Duke Dietrich shook his head slowly and said in a deep voice: "You can't do this, at least not now!"
The current battlefield situation can be clarified in two stages. It is currently in a stalemate stage, and the initiative on the battlefield is in the hands of the Sidonian centaurs; when the supplies of the Sidonian centaurs are tightened and food is exhausted, the war will break out, and the centaurs will either attack
, or retreat, or attack and retreat at the same time. If the eastern border defense line is replenished, and the factors of the Orc King's army are not taken into account, the initiative of the war will fall into the hands of humans. On the contrary, the Sasan Empire will be destroyed thousands of miles away. Although the Centaurs will
If they are annihilated, some of them will also flee to Wharton Prairie.
Flides nodded in agreement and said seriously: "At this time, no mistakes can be made in any decision. Not only can we not destroy the Centaur's rear supply line now, we must also try to send some food into the Eastern Territory for the goblin slaves to transport
The camps of the Huinan army... will delay the start of a full-scale war. The more fully prepared we are, the greater our chances of winning and the smaller our sacrifices will be."
He turned around, pointed at the map and said: "There are currently 1.4 million orcs in the Eastern Kaoru Territory, with goblins and kobolds accounting for the majority. They are actually split into two camps. The powerful ogres, furbolgs, and ferocious gnolls have betrayed
After conquering the Sidonian centaurs, they occupied the human villages and farms in the eastern open territory, gathered goblin and kobold slaves, established large and small orc tribes, and became the dominant force of the orcs. The remaining orc slaves are still controlled by the centaurs, about 600,000
, under the leadership of the centaur vanguard, collect supplies and food to supply the southern army."
"Currently, the centaur vanguard is attacking the orcs' entrenched forces. But we believe that as time goes by, the orcs' entrenched forces will gradually grow stronger. Even without our intervention, the orcs' entrenched forces will cut off the supply line of the southern centaur army camp."
"We estimate that within five months at most, the supply lines of the southern army will be cut off by the orcs' entrenched forces."
The old priest showed an incomprehensible smile and said: "It's funny. During the stalemate stage of the war, we must help the centaurs attack the orcs' entrenched forces and keep the supply line of the southern centaur army open."
The form of war between orcs is completely different from that of the earth world. Any ridiculous thing can happen. The most fundamental reason is the conflict between orcs. Orcs of different species, orcs of the same species and different races, will want to kill each other when they meet.
Get out of your head. In the northern wilderness, war between orcs and orcs is the norm.
Once upon a time, a human army was intercepted by a coalition of orcs. Before the fighting began, the ogres and centaurs started fighting, and the human army retreated to the castle intact. In history, this kind of thing happened frequently. However, every time a full-scale orc outbreak broke out in the human country
In wars, land will always be lost. This is because goblins have very strong reproductive and infiltration abilities, just like the current situation.
Goblins are indispensable craftsmen, slaves, and food for the large orcs. The Sidonian centaurs scattered goblin slaves into the eastern open territory. Those powerful orcs who did not have the production capacity followed after smelling the smell of goblins. In fact, Sasan
There are three forces in the eastern theater, the human army, the centaur army, and the orc-dominated forces. Even if the human army does not take action, the centaur and orc-dominated forces will fight each other.
The human kingdom has not experienced a total war between orcs for more than 1,400 years. The lords of the kingdoms and church clergy lack experience in orc wars. If you look at historical documents, you can make it clear that when the orc army and the orc rebels fight, the consequences of human beings standing aside are often...
Lost soil.
Just like this Centaur invasion, once the orc entrenched forces in the Eastern Kaifeng Territory took shape, they not only cut off the supply line of the Southern Centaur Army, but also cut off the supply lines of the Radiant Knights and the main Sasan army. The Centaur army lacked supplies, and together with the orc entrenched forces
After fighting a few battles, there is no gain, so it is natural to choose to retreat and leave the mess to the human army. Under normal circumstances, the human coalition, which lacks supplies, is unable to pursue the retreating centaurs and must turn around to deal with the orcs' entrenched forces. If the people of the territory
Retreating and fleeing weakens the war potential of the human army. Frontline commanders must consider the possibility that both the human legion and the orc-dominated forces will suffer losses, and the Centaur army will counterattack in an all-out way. The safest way is to give up the pioneering territory and let the orc-dominated forces become the main force between humans and
The barrier of the centaur army.
Lost soil!
Therefore, Roland judged that the probability of the Centaur troops splitting into two groups and fleeing to the Wharton Prairie was not high. According to historical experience, the Centaur army should have completely withdrawn. The two golden knights of the Dodo Kingdom did not foresee the Wharton Prairie.
The crisis in the grassland is actually quite normal.
Everyone lacks actual experience in orc warfare.
But, who dares to take risks? Who dares to let centaurs enter the Wharton Prairie?
There are two key points.
First, the Orc King has never shown his face. The Centaur invasion is just the prelude to the Orc War. When the Orc King's army comes to cover them up, the so-called Orcs' entrenched power acting as a barrier is a joke. Centaur infiltration into the Wharton Prairie is almost inevitable.
matter.
The human kingdom has reached its point of retreat.
Secondly, when Patriarch Flides met with the four Highnesses, he expressed his determination to support the tenant system. This determination stems from the will to annihilate the orc army and represents the desire of the church and the Sasanian Empire to regain the northern wilderness.
, the Knights of Radiance, Lord Sasan, and even the entire human kingdom have been preparing for 700 years.
The loss of land meant the failure of the sharecropping system and the complete destruction of any hope of recovering the northern wilderness.
Refugees migrated to the west of the empire, and Bronzehalberd City closed the passage for refugees going south to avoid attracting the orcish entrenched forces to the Wharton Prairie; it organized forces to attack the orcish entrenched forces in the eastward expansion territory, and maintained the supply line of the southern Centaur army... Foley
All decisions made by Patriarch Des are aimed at achieving the ultimate goal.
The human kingdom has no way to retreat, so it must use all its strength to face the Orc King's army head-on, defeat them, kill them, lose no ground, and turn defense into offense.
The orcs who occupy the Eastern Frontier and the Sidonian centaurs who are confronting the human coalition must all die!
This is the general trend of the war, and Dunkru's decision conforms to the general trend.
Patriarch Flides greeted Victor and said: "Your Highness Randall, the Storm Paladins of the Testir family are searching for traces of the King of Orcs. His Majesty Clement, His Majesty Neo West,
Turnans, Grand Commander Testir, and Referee Trigoval are all ready to behead him, and I hope His Highness can help if necessary."
The corners of Victor's mouth gradually formed a smile, and his deep eyes turned into the purest dark gold. An invisible golden light mist floated upward from the corners of his eyes, making him look mysterious and powerful.
"I am happy to kill some strong orcs before beheading the orc king."
The two highnesses of the Iron Wall Knights suddenly looked surprised. They could not sense the disturbance of the fire element at all. Flides did not have the ability to sense the element, but the high-ranking knights outside the camp were silent, which is enough to show that Victor
This extraordinary form. He couldn't help but connect His Highness Randall with the Sword Master Draven. The Testir family has records that golden mist appeared in the corners of the eyes of the Sword Master Draven, and even the Ogre King Vulkan could not
After determining the direction of danger, it went around in circles like a headless fly, and was finally killed by Draven. If it sensed Draven's location in advance, it would be difficult for a strong human being to behead it.
The same principle applies to Victor beheading the Orc King.
Although Storm Paladin Testiel and Legendary Knight Neowest are powerful, they may not be able to touch the King of Orcs. Turnans can blind the Legendary Orcs' sense of danger, but it is very dangerous for him to act alone. Now there is Wei
Kedo cooperated with him. As long as they locked the location of the King of Orcs, the beheading operation would be more than half successful.
Flides was both surprised and happy in his heart, but he wanted to make further confirmation, and asked in a deep voice: "Your Highness once killed gold-level jackals from the air. I heard that you can lock on targets within 6 kilometers. What are you doing now?"
Can we still blind the dire orcs’ dangerous instincts?”
I can do it more perfectly... Victor lifted the apocalypse, returned to normal, and said calmly: "Just try it with those powerful orc leaders and you will know."
Flides nodded and said: "That's right, we must carefully consider all factors to avoid making mistakes in decision-making."
"Your Excellency the Patriarch, I hope that the western part of Sasan can rely on the Dodo Kingdom's pioneering point in the Ghost Forest to open a channel so that the people of Sasan can take refuge in the Kingdom of Gambis."
Victor looked into Flanders's bright eyes and added: "I'm not negotiating terms with you."
"Of course, at this time, no one will negotiate terms for the orc war." Flides nodded in approval, thought for a while, and said: "I understand that millions of free people are crowded in the western part of Sasan with no way to retreat.
, over time, big trouble will definitely occur. If the development point outside the Ghost Forest can open up a migration channel for refugees, it will help stabilize people's hearts."
"I fully support the Kingdom of Gambis in accepting refugees from the Sasan Empire. However..."
Flides changed the topic, showing a slightly embarrassed look, and said seriously: "I don't have the manpower to organize the refugees to move south. The clergy of the entire Sasan Empire have responded to the call for war. There are only a few low-level people in the western territory where the Basilius family is located.
Priests and some church attendants. Organizing the migration of refugees is a tedious and dangerous task. If you let the refugees evacuate on their own, it will only cause a terrible disaster."
"...Good things cannot be turned into bad things." Flides pondered for a few seconds and said gently: "Let's do this. I will write a handwritten edict and ask the lords of the Basilius family and the left-behind priests to cooperate with the Kingdom of Cambis' refugee migration operations.
, including supplying the food supplies needed for the migration of refugees, but you must send people into the territory of the Basilius family to organize the migration of refugees."
Pupils contracted slightly, Victor said simply but forcefully:
"good!"
